Carbon dioxide (CO₂) emissions from fossil fuel combustion may be reduced by using natural gas rather than coal to produce energy. Gas produces approximately half the amount...

One of the most puzzling observed features of recent climate has been a multidecadal surface cooling trend over the subpolar Southern Ocean (SO). In this study we use large...

An exceptionally strong westward propagating quasi-6-day wave (Q6DW) with zonal wavenumber 1 in connection with the rare 2019 Southern Hemispheric Sudden Stratospheric Warming...

The quasi 2 day wave (QTDW) during January 2006 is investigated using Sounding of the Atmosphere using Broadband Emission Radiometry (SABER) observations of OH airglow and...

During the 2005 NOAA Hazardous Weather Testbed Spring Experiment two different high-resolution configurations of the Weather Research and Forecasting-Advanced Research WRF (WRF-...

This study uses the convective adjustment time scale to identify the climatological frequency of equilibrium and nonequilibrium convection in different parts of the contiguous...

Modification of grasslands into irrigated and nonirrigated agriculture in the Great Plains resulted in significant impacts on weather and climate. However, there has been lack...

Reconstructing deep time climate often relies on a limited number of data points, which can hinder inference of the large-scale climate state. Here we use an Earth system model...

The Cloud System Evolution in the Trades (CSET) study was designed to describe and explain the evolution of the boundary layer aerosol, cloud, and thermodynamic structures along...

Threats-in-motion (TIM) is a technological innovation that would allow NWS forecasters to expand severe thunderstorm and tornado warnings in area and/or time, instead of issuing...

During geomagnetic storms Joule heating dissipation is the dominant form of magnetospheric energy input that is responsible for many chemical and dynamical variations in the...

Recent work suggests that natural variability has played a significant role in the increase of Antarctic sea ice extent during 1979-2013. The ice extent has responded strongly...

Aridity index (AI), defined as the ratio of precipitation to potential evapotranspiration (PET), is a measure of the dryness of terrestrial climate. Global climate models...

Direct numerical simulations are combined with two-way coupled Lagrangian point particles to study the effect of Reynolds number on particle-turbulence interaction. Turbulent...

This document constitutes a portion of the final report to the National Science Foundation (NSF) on the National Hail Research Experiment (NHRE). The purpose of the material...

This paper presents statistics of cloud microphysical properties of shallow tropical cumuli observed by a research aircraft during RICO field campaign. Cloud properties are...

The purpose of this report is to document a global shallow water equation model based on the spectral transform method. Additionally, it includes a derivation of the governing...

High-latitude neutral winds often circulate in a two-cell pattern as driven by large-scale auroral forcing. However, auroral forcing also occurs in various types of mesoscale...

An investigation was conducted on the effects of various physics parameterizations on wintertime precipitation predictions using a high-resolution regional climate model. The...

The sea level contribution of the Antarctic ice sheet constitutes a large uncertainty in future sea level projections. Here we apply a linear response theory approach to 16...
